Inspired by the strength and elegance of Japanese bamboo forests, this octagonal plate features a deeply textured rim that mimics the nodes of a bamboo stalk. The rich, forest-green glaze pools beautifully in the carved ridges, creating a play of light and shadow.

The cream-colored center provides a clean, neutral canvas, making this a versatile piece for side dishes, pickles (tsukemono), or even as a unique saucer for tea. Its geometric shape adds a sophisticated architectural element to a mixed-ceramic table spread.
